L'extermination des Rwandais tutsi

J. Kagabo & C. Vidal.-The Extermination of Rwandan Tutsi. On 11 October 1990, in Gisenyi, the massacre began of Tutsi consideree to be close to the Rwandan Patriotic Front, the armed opposition to President Habyari-mana's government. This set off a cycle of violence culminating in systematic extermination during April 1994. The first targets were Tutsi, because of their ethnie group, and then any Hutu who opposed extremism and advocated democratie ideas. This testimony to this tragedy leads us to think about the rationales at work in this genocide that, according to ail evidence, top leaders in the Rwandan government had designed and planned. Establishing the history of this genocide is urgent; research must be undertaken with ail possible means so as to iden-tify the persons responsible and judge them in a fair trial
